On the Security Scene

Vehicle Accidents

On Thursday, June 27, Security responded to the intersection of Diamond Causeway and Lake Street for a two-vehicle accident with injuries. Chatham Emergency Services (CES), Skidaway Island First Responders (SIFR), and Chatham County Police Department (CCPD) already were on scene. The driver of the first vehicle stated that he had a green light and was making a left turn into The Village when he was struck by the driver of the second vehicle. However, a witness stated that the driver of the second vehicle had the green light, and the driver of the first vehicle did not yield. A review of the Avigilon camera system confirmed that the witness was correct. The driver of the second vehicle was treated on scene for her injuries and transported to the hospital for further evaluation. Both vehicles were removed from the scene by a tow truck.

While performing routine patrols, Security came upon a two-vehicle accident at the intersection of McWhorter Drive and Diamond Causeway. The Officer immediately began checking for injuries, while waiting for CCPD and CES. Upon their arrival, the Officer began assisting with traffic control. CCPD handled the investigation for the accident, so the cause of the accident is unknown. One driver was transported to the hospital for further evaluation. Both vehicles were removed from the scene by a tow truck.
